Property118 - more hopelessly wrong tax advice for landlords
We have previously reported on a high profile unregulated firm called "Property118", which promoted a series of landlord tax avoidance schemes. HMRC took action, and Property118 has resorted to asking their clients to make donations to fund their appeals. Despite this, Property118 continues to promote tax avoidance that doesn't work and will land its clients in a financial mess.
Property118 is continuing to publish tax advice for landlords, in the form of a 36 page ebook. One of our team, a stamp duty land tax specialist, reviewed the ebook and was alarmed by its contents. We have discussed his concerns with other SDLT experts, and the consensus is that much of the advice is objectively wrong. By this we don't mean that we disagree with it; we mean that it misses obvious points which a newly qualified tax adviser would immediately identify.
